Understanding the root causes of FdW and its effects across multiple dimensions is crucial. Despite extensive global research, studies focusing on Household Food Waste (HFdW) in Tanzania remain limited. This study addresses that gap by analyzing the determinants of FdW generation across combinations of Food Groups (FGs) in Dodoma, Tanzania. A cross-sectional survey of 402 households was conducted to collect data on FdW-related behaviors and preferences. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) with varimax rotation was applied to reduce dimensionality, revealing that Cereals, Legumes &amp; Pulses, and Roots &amp; Tubers contributed most strongly to the retained components that capture the main variation in HFdW patterns. Each group was then dichotomized into high or low waste based on the median, and the resulting binary indicators were combined to create eight possible FdW patterns, representing all combinations of waste intensity across the three groups. These FdW patterns formed the dependent variable in a Multinomial Probit Regression Model (MPRM). The model revealed that demographic factors such as higher education, female-headed, and older households were associated with lower HFdW. Behavioural practices, including meal planning and leftover reuse, also reduced waste, while attitudinal factors such as greater awareness of FdW impacts further reinforced this effect. In contrast, weaker perceptions of money value were linked to higher FdW levels. The findings highlight the importance of behavioral and contextual factors in shaping HFdW. Policymakers should consider targeted strategies such as meal planning support, storage and handling education, and gender-responsive interventions to reduce FdW and enhance food security in Tanzania and other low-resource settings.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101276,"journal":{"name":"Waste Management Bulletin","volume":"4 1","pages":"Article 100276"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145884127","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, cocoa pod husk (CPH), an important by-product, remains largely underutilized. Therefore, this study provides the first comprehensive, multi-country assessment of CPH generation across seven major West African cocoa-producing countries namely Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Guinea, and Togo over a 20-year period. It further assesses current management pathways and their environmental implications, with an evaluation of biochar as valorization approach. The data used in this study was gathered through field surveys and quantitative secondary data from FAOSTAT. Methane (CH<sub>4</sub>) emissions from decomposition of CPH were estimated based on IPCC methodologies, while biochar potential and carbon sequestration capacity were determined using established equations. The results showed that in 20 years, a total of 578 million tonnes of CPH were produced, with Côte d'Ivoire contributing the largest share with 331 million tonnes, followed by Ghana with 160 million tonnes. At present, on-farm abandonment remains the predominant management practice, emitting an estimated 17 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO<sub>2</sub>-eq) annually representing about 3% of Africa’s agricultural CH<sub>4</sub> emissions. Conversion of this biomass into biochar represents a significant mitigation opportunity. The estimated annual production potential of CPH-biochar is 869 thousand tonnes, capable of sequestering about 1.59 million tonnes of CO<sub>2</sub>-eq per year. Adopting this approach could reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions more than 18 million tonnes of CO<sub>2</sub>-eq, including avoided emissions and carbon sequestration.

The hotel industry is a significant contributor to national economies, and it is steadily incorporating green practices to improve operational efficiency and reduce environmental impact. Though green supply chain management (GSCM) has been a subject of significant interest in manufacturing and logistic settings, GSCM in the hospitality industry, particularly in developing nations such as Sri Lanka, is still a largely unexplored area. To bridge this gap, the current study investigates the relationship between GSCM practices and OP with a particular focus on the moderating effects of hotel star classification. A cross-sectional, deductive research design was used, and Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) was the method of analysis. A web-based survey of 167 star-class hotels in Sri Lanka gained a high response rate of 88.44%. GSCM practices were represented as a second-order construct with five dimensions: eco design, green purchasing, internal environment management, investment recovery, and reverse logistics. The findings reveal that GSCM practices have a significant positive impact on OP. However, the star ratings of the hotels had no significant effect on this relationship, meaning the positive impact of GSCM practices are consistent across the industry. This finding indicates the need to investigate additional moderating variables such as ownership patterns and environmental certifications.

Traditional point-based surveying methods are precise, but they are limited in spatial density coverage and hence, efficiency. The objective of the study is to evaluate the application of airborne laser scanning (ALS) for detecting volume changes at operational MSW landfill in the Czech Republic. Specifically, the study determines optimal spatial resolution of digital terrain model (DTM) from ALS for estimation of landfill volume, estimates uncertainties related to slope steepness and different vegetation cover affecting the accuracy of ALS-derived DTM, and formalizes and applies the method for detecting landfill volume changes using ALS. Two ALS datasets (10 points/m<sup>2</sup>) were collected in a five-month interval and processed at multiple spatial resolutions (0.3 m to 1.5 m). GPS reference points were measured for ALS data co-registration and to assess the accuracy of ALS-derived elevations. Positional errors and their propagation into elevation errors were quantified, and vegetation-induced uncertainties were considered. Results indicate that DTM resolutions of 0.3–0.8 m provide the most reliable estimates of volume change, especially in heterogeneous areas such as vegetated slopes. Differences in the standard deviation (SD) of elevation changes for selected areas at the landfill between the DTM resolution of 0.3 m and coarser resolutions were minimal for stable surfaces such as roads and compacted waste (0.01–0.02 m), but higher for vegetated areas, where the SD increased by up to 0.10 m due to surface roughness and variable laser penetration through the canopy. Comparison with independent GPS reference points showed that finer DTMs (0.3 and 0.5 m) reduced both bias and variability (mean differences ≤ 0.23 m, SD ≤ 0.24 m), whereas coarser DTMs (0.8 and 1.5 m) increased systematic errors due to surface smoothing and vegetation-induced misclassification. The findings recommend acquiring ALS data in early spring or late autumn, when vegetation cover is minimal and the influence of canopy on DTM accuracy is reduced. The study presents a novel workflow integrating ALS data with error modeling to improve landfill monitoring protocols.
